Compatibility of the Reggeized form of QCD multi-particle amplitudes with the s-channel unitarity requires fulfilment of an infinite number of the "bootstrap" relations. On the other hand, it turns out that fulfillment of all these…

It is shown that the kernel of the BFKL equation for the octet color state of two Reggeized gluons satisfies the strong bootstrap condition in the next-to-leading order. This condition is much more restrictive than the one obtained from the…

The bootstrap condition is generalized to $n$ reggeized gluons. As a result it is demonstrated that the intercept generated by $n$ reggeized gluons cannot be lower than the one for $n=2$. Arguments are presented that in the limit…
The compatibility of the multi--Regge form of QCD amplitudes in the quasi--multi--Regge kinematics (QMRK) and the s--channel unitarity imposes some constraints on the effective jet--production vertices. We demonstrate that these constraints…

The generalization of the BFKL equation for the case of non-forward scattering is considered. The kernel of the generalized equation in the next-to-leading approximation is expressed in terms of the gluon Regge trajectory and the effective…

$s$-channel discontinuity of quark-quark scattering amplitude with gluon quantum numbers in the $t$ channel and negative signature is calculated in the Regge kinematical region in the two-loop approximation. Using this discontinuity and…
The equation for two reggeized gluons in the vacuum channel is generalized to take into account the running QCD coupling constant on the basis of the bootstrap condition for gluon reggeization. Both the gluon trajectory as a function of…
We calculated the effective vertex of the quark production in the collision of Reggeized quark and Reggeized gluon in the next-to-leading order (NLO). The vertex in question is the missing component of the multi-Regge NLO amplitudes with…
Our aim is to show how the reggeization of the gluon, encoded in the bootstrap property of the BFKL kernel, permits to calculate the interaction kernel in the octet colour channel in the forward and non forward direction, for the quark…

In order to check the compatibility of the gluon Reggeization in QCD with the $s$-channel unitarity, the one-loop correction to the Reggeon-Reggeon-gluon vertex must be known at arbitrary space-time dimension $D$. We obtain this correction…
Scattering amplitudes in the high-energy limit can be described in terms of their singularity structure in the complex angular momentum plane, consisting of Regge poles and cuts. In QCD, gluon Reggeization has long been understood as a…
We propose a new method for constructing the consistent space of scattering amplitudes by parameterizing the imaginary parts of partial waves and utilizing dispersion relations, crossing symmetry, and full unitarity. Using this framework,…
